The deepest of frowns hadn’t left Kamil’s face since they left the city for a coastal town in Massachusetts. Of all things, the coast in October didn’t seem particularly enticing, especially when he could be back at the theatre working on his most recent project --    But it was that mentality that led him here.     Kamil’s inability to let go of his work was a concern amongst the small group of friends. So much so that his bags had been thoroughly checked before even leaving the door to ensure he didn’t pack any of his emergency seamstress kits or sketchbooks to work on. What they hadn’t confiscated, by his surprise, was a fine bottle of liquor that he often relied on as he went through his “creative” moments. The moments where he’d coop himself up in a small, dark space, as his mind ran wild.      Pushing his fingers through his hair -- flat from the humidity -- Kamil inspected the little manor that they’d thrown down on. Impressive. Rumors of hauntings was certainly an attraction to this little humble abode, and Kamil wasn’t much for such superstitions. “If they have a bath tub as big as me, I’ll consider this home in no time at all,” Kamil offers lightly, the deep frown finally softening into one of interest.      “Salem certainly does have an appeal to it, doesn’t it?” he’s trying to be a bit more optimistic, charmed by the infrastructure. His mind sounds the creative alarms, fingers itching to draw out a whole panel of different costumes to fit this house alone. “I love the witchy vibe,” he laughs, taking the lead towards the manor.

“N-nothing’s wrong! J-just got a bit surprised by one of the Halloween decorations over there!” Tsubasa loved the holiday just as much as anyone else, but sometimes the jumpscares were unbearable! Tsubasa whimpered as she hugged her “stuffed animal”. She’d be fine in a few moments! Probably!

“Yes. I do need help with this. Could you get that book for me?” Tsubasa explained, pointing to the book in question.

“I... I’m fine... really...” Tsubasa’s body trembled even more as tears began to flow down her cheeks. This was probably the most blatant lie she’d told in a while. The only way she could be even more embarrassed right now was if she fainted right in front of this stranger...

“ okay. ” that still didn’t answer his question of what yahoo answers was though. a search engine -- what’s a search engine shin ? can you focus on the question at hand ? lucian feels as though he’s leaving with more questions than what he came to the other with.  “ does it solve, ” brows furrow as he waves his hands around in the air, “ every problem ? ”

“ i ..... see ? ” tail swishes curiously as the other looks down at shin , head tilting to the side. the smell of alcohol was strong -- much more than lucian was use too but he bears it for the other as he squats. “ ‘s there a reason you got drunk ? ” he’s not good at this whole comforting thing. “ shouldn’t you go home ? why did you come here anyways? ”  it had shocked him to see the other sitting outside of his spot , enough that ears and tail popped out and so he moves to pick the other up , a difficult task really with how weak he was. “ c’mon lets go to the park and clear yer head. ” now if he could just get them there. 

“ what’s a gps ? ” red brows come together to furrow as curiosity ignites in stomach , pushing himself closer to the other , wide golden eyes blinking as head tilts. he’s realising since his escape from that place , he hadn’t had the most normal growing conditions that other’s have. “ is it like , ” lips scrunch together as he tries to remember a word he had learned once upon a time from a very kind woman who had long since , passed away. “ is it like an owner ? ”
